President Trump Risks Falling into the Amnesty Trap
Center For Immigration Studies ^ | 10 July 2025 | Ronald W. Mortensen

Posted on 07/14/2025 10:23:38 AM PDT by zeestephen

During the 2024 presidential campaign, President Donald J. Trump repeatedly told Americans that his administration would carry out mass deportations and always put Americans First...The president is now expressing concerns about the impact that mass deportations will have on the agricultural and hospitality segments of the economy, and he is now proposing a qualified form of amnesty for illegal aliens and their employers.

If they want it bad enough to put in two years in the military and/or part of CCC-type teams to rebuild our roads and bridges then I’d be ok with it. But it would be hard and dangerous work.

I’m pretty sure that the Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins has Trump’s ear and is running point on this for Big Ag. We have an agricultural guest worker program (H-2A) now that doesn’t need to be reinvented (opening a lot of loopholes in the process).

It is beyond incredible with what has been done so far and continues to be done as we type, that we have people now arguing Trump is “going soft” on illegal immigration and stirring up anger. Absolute lunacy.

I guess we are now adopting a “grievance culture” on the right as well.

Send them all back was never going to happen. Trump knew it when he said it. It’s called hyperbole. The people who take Trump literally will be enraged. I thought no Trumpmhas done great. He closed the border and now he has a mess that took 30 years to create.

If they all go back to enjoy you SS cut.

Trump switches to amnesty and he's finished.
Hakeem takes over the House in 2026 and delivers hell.
Trump had better lay off taking immigration advice from Secretary Rollins.

“”There’s going to be folk saying there are instances where amnesty should be provided.

And if that is allowed the Devil has his foot in the door.

It’s slippery slope leading down, down, down.””

Amnesty is basically allowing criminals... ie people that have broken the law... to become legal citizens, ahead of people that have not broken immigration laws and that have applied to become US citizens the legal way. The law-breakers don’t deserve to be bumped in front of those applying legally. That would literally be rewarding their bad behavior and encouraging millions of others to do the same.

Nah. To the very back of the line they go, making them dead last to ‘get in’ legally... if at all. At least, that would be my call.
